Archiv für April 2016

The entzaubert queer international diy noncommercial film festival has been around for nearly a decade!!!

In 2007, we had our first festival on the banks of the Spree. It was a small festival organized by people on the project group of the queer wagenplatz Kanal (at the time known as Schwarzer Kanal). There was no selection of films, ALL of the films submitted were screened! Over the years, entzaubert has grown, and now filmmakers all over the world contact us everyday to send us films. We have gathered a large archive of film submissions, not all of which we have had the chance to screen. So, we have decided that for this year’s festival (in the summer of 2016), instead of taking new submissions, we will dive deep into our archive, to increase the visibility of one of the world’s few DIY self-organized queer film archives, take a look at the films we’ve gathered with newer perspectives, and put together a retrospective, along with workshops and discussions, e.g.; filmmaking, archiving, diy practices, organizing a festival, etc.

A call-out for the 2017, 10th anniversary festival, will take place this summer.
